Tenth
Athena & Hades
Taec pumps his legs. A few more blocks. Almost. There. He thought breathlessly. Yoobin's dead weight in his arms. He glances at her face for a
second before looking ahead for his house. Almost. Almost there. Finally he reached his small house. Without knocking, he kicks the front door
open. The 2pm members playing cards greeted him casually. Then they noticed a girl unconscious in his arms and shot up from their seats, eyes wide
and bewildered.
" Who's that?? " They ask in unison.
Taec who was red in the face shook his head tiredly and ran into his room, to let Yoobin down. He places Yoobin softly down on his bed. The
weight in his arms gone and was now numb. He sighs, relieved. He breathes in slowly and rested his head in arms, facing the girl he saved. 2pm
crowded around his door, peering over each other's shoulders.
" Someone get me some water and towels and a bandage. " Taec commands sternly.
2pm glances at each other and Junho scrambles to get the items. Taec sighs and brushes Yoobin's hair away from her wound. Her hair was matted
with damp blood. She must've hit her head hard. He leans over and turn her face to the side, taking a good look at her open wound. It was
considerably huge. But no- he couldn't take her to the hospital. His company will be in trouble. He curses SNSD silently in his head. Damn you girls!
Look what you've done. He glances at 2pm, and beckons them to come in. They hurriedly rush to his side. As soon as they saw Yoobin, they gasped
and glared at Taec.
" Yah! You crazy?! She's our enemy!" Chansung yells.
Taec said nothing, only sighed. Junho came and handed Taec the towels and bandage. Taec calmly did his work, cleaning out the wound, pressing the
medicine on her wound and wrapping her head with a bandage. The members watches silently. Khun places an understanding and on his shoulder.
" You wanna talk about this? " He asks softly. Taec remains silent for a few seconds before he faces Khun.
" SNSD beat her up. If her body is found.........they'll lodge a complaint and all our secrets will be uncovered. " Taec says seriously.
2pm members nodded. Finally understanding.
" But......she beat us up, right? " Wooyoung says, and scratching his head.
" We were wrong to her. I mean, since when do we harass girls? " Junho voices.
Taec nods and warily watches Yoobin, whose face was pale and lifeless.
" So what do we do now? " Chansung asks.
" We wait. For her to wake up, then we can ask her to call someone. I don't want to invade her phone. " Taec says sensibly.
The members nod thoughtfully at his idea. Taec gets up, motioning for the members to leave as well. They took a glance at Yoobin who had a little
colour to her face but was still unconscious and left.
---
Yoobin fluttered her stinging and heavy eyelids open. So. Hard. To. See. She took a ragged breath, her chest piercing, she didn't take another gasp of
air. Her view came slowly, blurrily. She was in a room. A dark one. But it was illuminated by a small light lamp that creates shadows in the room.
The shadows of stars and crescents. It was pretty. Girly.
" Am I in heaven? " She spoke to herself.
She heard someone chuckle deeply near her. Her heart leapt into . And she almost jump out of the bed.
" How are you feeling? " A guy asks, and to her astonishment, it was that big-eared guy she got into a fight with.
I am in deeeeeep ! Yoobin cursed in her mind.
